The result was redirect to OpenText#Acquisitions. Consensus is unclear as to whether a merger is helpful, but the history is under the redirect if someone wants to selectively merge Star Mississippi 21:06, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment when a company was listed on NASDAQ and then acquired for $860 million, I am inclined to presume the company has sufficient coverage to meet GNG. But looking at the references, some (such as ref#11 [1]) don't even mention Zix, while others are obviously promotional, are press releases, or bare links to stock-price databases. I don't see sourcing that would support a Keep vote. Walt Yoder (talk) 04:17, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to OpenText#Acquisitions. I note by the way that there are a lot of lines there that will be utterly meaningless to the reader because they just say that OpenText acquired company foo and company bar with no hint of what these acquisitions signify.

Redirect - I see on the OpenText talk page that there were two others merged there pursuant to discussion (possibly others per BOLD). As far as Zix, the references do not meet WP:ORGCRIT so there is nothing to save under that name. --CNMall41 (talk) 07:43, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
